and the role that the government and f.t.c. plays in all of this? >> if the company commit based on the work with the white house and the work to not track you if you ask not to be tracked, my guess is it probably won't change their lives all too much. i'm not so sure any people will opt out. i like getting ads that relate to things i'm interested in. our sense is not too many people will opt out. the other thing is that these companies will have made a commitment. if they violate that commitment, that will be potentially a case for the f.t.c. nobody wants to do that. they will give consumers more choice. >> you talked about what you want companies to be more clear in their privacy policies. google has been clear in the changes its making to its privacy policies on march 1. people have voiced concern about that, people on capitol hill. i know you can't get into the details of your settlement whether you're enforcing that, but do you have any personal concerns about the changes they're going to be implementing next week? >> other than saying that the
